I'm indifferent to Lawrence, but Mystique would be the LAST character in Fox's X-Men that should jump to the MCU. If there's any X-Men character that should show up in Guardians, it should be Shadowcat. I'm probably in the minority, but I think the relationship she's got going on with Quill in the comics right now is adorable.

There's only one X-Men character Marvel and Disney would bargain for. It's Hugh Jackman Wolverine, even if he's recast in the Fox movies they would still want that specific version.

 

[KO Traveling Hobo]

The sacred rock incident sealed the deal for me. I finally saw what everyone else saw

Yep. That video was rough.

 

[Lyng]

I have no idea. Romjin was in another league compared to Lawrence's dull, boring interpretation of the character. Hated it.



Ditto. She had good management pushing the media darling angle. Never, ever bought into it.

Romjin's Mystique was perfect for me.

 

[dmr87]

Good, now give X-men to Marvel.

 

[neojubei]

Please stay away from Guardians AND X-men. Cheers.

this

 

[Izuna]

Yay!

I actually really liked Apocolypse. Not the Mystique parts, mind you.

 

[Baroquemantic]

I like her.

Her mystique is awful tho.

My sentiments exactly.

 

[Rumblebones]

Please don't be in any X-Men movie. Ever again. Please.

Better yet, stay away from franchise movies.

 

[Parallax]

Mystique in comics was almost Nightcrawler's father

She did up being in a 80 year relationship with a woman

you know what i dont understand? why does mystique keep having children if she never plans on raising any of them?

 

[Goro Majima]

She was good in First Class.

I think Mystique is a kinda boring character to begin with but since she got famous they decided to capitalize on that and made her extremely integral to Days of Future Past. Or maybe that's how the original story goes so who knows? Either way I was pretty much bored with everything Mystique.

 

[Dabanton]

Wait, what the fuck?

This place hates Jennifer Lawrence?

Why?

It's all part of the cycle of life.

You love something or someone then you slowly get sick of them.

Happens on here with movies,music, sports comics, and people, usually females.

 

[Maximus.]

Good. I'm tired of actors thinking they are so important they force their character to take over the story. Was annoyed when Storm did it with X2 and X3 and tired with Jennifer doing it now. Nothing against her performances or person.

 

[Zetta]

Fans of Jennifer Lawrence's Mystique

Those existed........ good riddance to her Mystique.

 

[Slayven]

like how the baby is "Yeah I am fucked"

What? I never liked her. Always seemed like a smug asshole from the time she got mainstream success (Hunger Games/First Class) and my initial impressions of her were proven right time and time again.

 

[Soapbox Killer]

Let her plant the seed.

 

[PersonAndStuff]

Good. The X-Men movies were at their worst when she tried to make Mystique the key to everything because Jlaw became super famous after Hunger Games.

 

[Kayhan]

like how the baby is "Yeah I am fucked"

The little skull sells it.

Mystique: "Am I the baddie?"

 

[Frozenprince]

I mean I dislike her because she crapped on my people's culture then laughed about it so.

 

[ginger ninja]

So beside silver linings playbook, whats her other good work ? Genuine question since I haven't watched the hunger games book.

 

[Kyoufu]

She wasn't a good fit for the character so this is good news.

Sadly I still don't have much faith they'll get anything else right with the franchise.

 

[Anth0ny]

god damn just drop the character already

please

 

[Bold One]

Good. I'm tired of actors thinking they are so important they force their character to take over the story. Was annoyed when Storm did it with X2 and X3 and tired with Jennifer doing it now. Nothing against her performances or person.

please refresh my memory...

 

[notaskwid]

Yay, I hope she and Pratt start making exclusively Passenger movies.

 

[cruets]

I love jlaw. I just hate mystique. No more mystique period please

 

[mreddie]

Well, the X films are kinda getting rebooted because Fox is panicking that X-Men didn't do as well.

So bye.

 

[Ashhong]

I'm sure she could play Mystique just fine if she were motivated to. Wasn't she stuck doing Mystique because she signed a deal for a bunch of movies before she blew up?

Gee, sucks that she signed a contract for millions of dollars to play a comic book character that gets tons of screen time. I hope she can fight through it and be motivated in her next movie.

 

[rpg_fan]

She was just such a pale imitation of Romijn's version. Definitely for the best that it be recast.

 

[PhantomZone]

Good riddance.

This

Having her in the X-Men universe and then the focus shifting on her character in he prequel trilogy was a huge mistake. Her acting is very overrated.

 

[ReBurn]

How is she in The Hunger Games? Haven't seen those.

I thought she was good in those movies because the protagonist had to put emotions aside to get the job done. Even when she had to display emotion it felt a bit forced, which also fit the personality of the character. That's my opinion, anyway.

 

[TemplaerDude]

Man, times sure do change; I remember when this place loved Jennifer Lawrence.

Yeah, I'm real confused, I was under the impression GAF still had its J-Law thing going on. Is she too mainstream now?

 

[Kayhan]

I think the only movie were I really thought Jennifer Lawrence was amazing was Winter's Bone.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

She's a terrible Mystique

.

 

[Pachimari]

Jennifer Lawrence is so fucking cool. But I hope this also means that we won't see Mystique at all in the coming movies. Time to give others the limelight.

 

[Kayhan]

Jennifer Lawrence is so fucking cool.

Not as Mystique.

 

[>:)]

Hmmmm...

With her hinting at joining the MCU, does no one else see the perfect solution here? With Natalie Portman gone, a certain thunder god could use a new waifu, and in the process becoming the greatest movie in GAF history.

 

[Ninjimbo]

Hey, why does everyone hates Jeniffer now? I thought we liked her

Overexposure. It happens to everyone with JLaw's amount of stardom.

 

[andythinkpad]

Oh just sleep with Pratt and get it over with.

I donno, this multi-picture cock teasing is pretty funny.

I hope Pratt shut her down after she dump Aronofsky.

 

[kswiston]

So beside silver linings playbook, whats her other good work ? Genuine question since I haven't watched the hunger games book.

Winter's Bone.

If you liked Silver Linings Playbook, American Hustle is basically the same character with a few IQ points knocked off and converted to crazy.

 

[Phoenix RISING]

FORREAL! The critique of Storm has been that she was not as assertive as she should have been in the movies as leader of the Gold team (or was it Silver?).

 

[Slayven]

Winter's Bone.

If you liked Silver Linings Playbook, American Hustle is basically the same character with a few IQ points knocked off and converted to crazy.

And Mop...I mean Joy?

 

[andythinkpad]

Winter's Bone

 

[Stinkles]

Who are these people?

Smurf, Sonic and Dr. Manhattan stans.


There are literally dozens of them.

 

[kswiston]

And Mop...I mean Joy?

I never bothered watching that. David O. Russell was due for some humility though.

 

[Chumley]

Not as Mystique.

Please tell us again about JLaw as Mystique, I don't think the message is clear enough yet.

 

[Grazzt]

No more Mystique





in xmen movies please!

 

[Twilight Gap]

She saps the energy out of every scene she's on screen.

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

The turn on Jennifer Lawrence over the last couple years has been amazing. I mean, yeah she completely phoned it in post First Class with these movies and clearly hasn't given a shit since then where she was still fairly unknown and "hungry" but still, it's been amazing.

 

[KO Traveling Hobo]

I mean I dislike her because she crapped on my people's culture then laughed about it so.

But she's so relatable, though!

Spoiler

[LordKasual]

I think Gaf just hates things as hard as it loves things

and boy, this place really must love some shit lol...because this thread makes me feel like i completely missed that video where she dipped the puppies into the garbage disposal
